According to INVISTA , dyeing delivers colourfastness, but not all solution dyed nylon is the same. ANTRON LUMENA solution dyed nylon has all the benefits of Type 6,6 nylon, a specially engineered polymer for good carpet performance.
Among other advantages, the tighter structure of Type 6,6 means it is tougher for stains to penetrate the carpet. As a result, a spill takes longer to become a stain, allowing more time for clean-up.
Whether the key concerns are staining, crushing, matting or abrasive wear, the tighter structure of Type 6,6 nylon delivers a more resilient and colourfast foundation for the carpet than Type 6 nylon.
ANTRON LUMENA solution dyed nylon is also “cationic,” which means stain resistance is inherent to its structure. Engineered not to accept acid stains (the most common type of food stains), it can stand up to the harshest spills and chemical cleaning agents.
ANTRON LUMENA solution dyed nylon is treated with DuraTech soil resistant treatment, a one-time application that doesn’t wash or walk off, delivering long-term protection.
In addition to the qualities of Type 6,6 nylon, ANTRON LUMENA solution dyed nylon also features unique hollow fibre shapes, which provide good soil resistance and soil release. These specially engineered fibres resist soiling so your carpet looks good between cleanings. Also, the fibres readily release soil during cleaning to help maintain that like-new appearance with routine maintenance.
